New and Transfer Students: All new and transfer students are enrolled at the beginning of each semester into an orientation in Blackboard itself. The orientation is optional and does not count toward a grade.
Continuing Students: Any other students who would like to learn more about using Blackboard may also take the orientation. Contact the Instructional Technologist to be enrolled.
